RAWALPINDI, Pakistan (CNN) --
"Pakistan former Prime Minister Benazir Bhutto has died after a suicide bombing that killed at least 14 of her supporters, ex-government spokesman Tariq Azim Khan and Pakistan's primary television networks said."
She had many enemies. I wonder which one did this?

sooo true!
I am enraged today! Where are the womens groups???? One of these days I am going to write a scathing piece on the feminists for the stable. I feel it itching in my fingertips.
May Benazir find rest with angels. She was strong, brave, and wanted democracy for her people and country. What a sad day for all of us.
3rd whore, apparently the womens groups only care about themselves and not others...besides, they are afraid of offending muslims/islamist....
Thats the problem that is all they care about. They have the luxury of a platform to speak up here in the US where they will not be killed, jailed, raped, or beaten and yet they are content to let (far better than they are) women in Iraq, Iran, Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Afghanistan and oh so many countries where women have no/little right to speak. These women CAN/do suffer horribly for their activism and this is what pisses me off about it. Where are you N.O.W. ????
N.O.W. here me loud and clear I am calling you out!!!!
